Project to Raise Funds to Purchase Hire Bikes for the club which will be used by new starters to learn the basics of BMX Racing

by Paul Giles in Hartlepool, United Kingdom

 New stretch target

Any additional money raised will go towards track maintenance to keep our track in tip top condition so it can continue to be enjoyed by all who use it.


Who are we?

The North East BMX Club is made up of dedicated bike riders, of all ages, who train weekly at the local track at Summerhill in Hartlepool. They hone their bicycle riding skills in order to race in local, national and world championship races. 

The BMX club is run by a group of dedicated volunteers who offer their time to raise funds, maintain the track and coach the next generation of BMX champions.

Why are we crowdfunding?

As the club receives limited funds from councils and cycling governing bodies we are looking for donations to improve our facilities which will benefit our existing members and attract new ones into the sport. 

How we’ll spend the money raised

We will use any donations to fund the purchase new bikes which will be used to introduce new riders into the sport. We are hoping to purchase 3 new bikes in sizes Mini, Junior and Expert for riders aged 5 up to 12 years of age.

Community impact

BMX is a healthy, family friendly, community-oriented activity which improves the skills and confidence of all those who participate
